RESUMEN
Although phosphatidic acid (PA) regulates a wide variety of physiological processes, its targets remain poorly characterized in human neutrophils. By co-sedimentation with PA-containing vesicles we identified several PA-binding proteins including vesicle amine transport protein-1 (VAT-1), Annexin A3 (ANXA3), Rac2, Cdc42 and RhoG in neutrophil cytosol. Except for ANXA3, protein binding to PA-containing liposomes was calcium-independent. Cdc42 and RhoG preferentially interacted with PA whereas VAT-1 bound to PA or phosphatidylserine with the same affinity. VAT-1 translocated to neutrophil membranes upon N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLF) stimulation. Inhibition of fMLF-induced PLD activity with the Src kinase inhibitor PP2, the selective inhibitor of PLD FIPI, or of PA formation with primary alcohols reduced VAT-1 translocation. In contrast, inhibition of PA hydrolysis with propranolol enhanced fMLF-mediated VAT-1 recruitment to membranes. PMA also redistributed VAT-1 to membranes in a PKC- and PLD-dependent manner. Though fMLF and PMA increased VAT-1 phosphorylation, different kinases appear to be involved. Cell fractionation revealed that a pool of VAT-1 was co-localized with primary, secondary and tertiary granules and plasma membrane markers in resting neutrophils. Stimulation with fMLF enhanced VAT-1 co-localization with CD32a, a plasma membrane marker. Confocal microscopy revealed that VAT-1 decorates granular structures at the cell periphery and double labeling with VAT-1/lactoferrin antibodies showed a partial co-localization with secondary granules in control and fMLF-stimulated cells. Characterization of these putative PA-binding proteins constitutes another step forward for a better understanding of the role of PLD-derived PA in neutrophil physiology.

Polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) stimulation with fMLP stimulates small G proteins such as ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) Arf1 and Arf6, leading to phospholipase D (PLD) activation and functions such as degranulation and the oxidative burst. However, the molecular links between fMLF receptors and PLD remain unclear. PMNs express cytohesin-1, an Arf-guanine exchange factor that activates Arfs, and its expression is strongly induced during the acquisition of the neutrophilic phenotype by neutrophil-like cells. The role of cytohesin-1 in the activation of the fMLF-Arf-PLD signaling axis, and the accomplishment of superoxide anion production, and degranulation was investigated in PMNs using the selective inhibitor of cytohesin, Sec 7 inhibitor H3 (secinH3). Cytohesin-1 inhibition with secinH3 leads to Arf6 but not Arf1 inhibition, demonstrating the specificity for Arf6, and fMLF-mediated activation of PLD and of the oxidative burst as well. We observed a decrease in fMLF-mediated protein secretion and expression of cell surface markers corresponding to primary (CD63/myeloperoxidase), secondary (CD66/lactoferrin), and tertiary (matrix metalloproteinase-9) granules in PMNs incubated with secinH3. Similarly, silencing cytohesin-1 or Arf6 in PLB-985 cells negatively affected fMLF-induced activation of PLD, superoxide production, and expression of granule markers on the cell surface. In contrast, stable overexpression of cytohesin-1 in PLB-985 cells enhanced fMLF-induced activation of Arf6, PLD, and NADPH oxidase. The results of this study provide evidence for an involvement of cytohesin-1 in the regulation of the functional responses of human PMNs and link these events, in part at least, to the activation of Arf6.

Exocytosis of neutrophil granules is a major event that converts circulating neutrophils into fully activated cells capable of chemotaxis, phagocytosis and destruction of pathogens. The PLB-985 cell line is a suitable neutrophilic cellular model which is utilised to study the different functional responses of neutrophils. In this study, we characterised the differentiation of PLB-985 cells toward the granulocytic pathway, using three different inducing agents: dbcAMP, DMSO and DMF. The differentiation efficiency was monitored by observation of cell morphology with electron microscopy, and by analysis of the expression of receptors such as FPRL1 and FcgammaRIIA, the distribution or release of granule markers, phagocytic capacity, as well as measurement of fMLF-induced calcium fluxes. Exocytosis and phagocytosis in differentiated cells were weaker as compared to neutrophils. fMLF stimulated primary granule exocytosis in cells differentiated with dbcAMP, DMSO and DMF, whereas the release of the contents of tertiary granules, as well as that of secretory vesicles, was only observed in dbcAMP-differentiated cells. DMSO-differentiated cells exhibited the highest phagocytic capacity. Altogether our results reinforce the fact that depending on the differentiating agent used, PLB-985 cells represent a useful model to study neutrophil functions and to bypass difficulties inherent to these primary cells.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), an eicosanoid that modulates inflammation, inhibits several chemoattractant-elicited functions in neutrophils such as chemotaxis, production of superoxide anions, adhesion, secretion of cytotoxic enzymes and synthesis of leukotriene B4. We previously reported that PGE2 inhibits the fMLP signaling pathway that leads to PLD activation through suppression of PI3-Kgamma activity and the decreased recruitment to membranes of PLD activation factors, PKC, Rho and Arf-GTPases. This effect is mediated via the EP2 receptors known to raise cAMP in cells. The inhibition of most fMLP-induced functional responses by PGE2 via EP2 receptors is mediated by PKA, except the chemotactic response. We have investigated the role of PKA in the EP2-mediated inhibition of the PLD activation pathway. H-89, a selective PKA pharmacological inhibitor suppressed the inhibitory effects of PGE2 at all stages of the PLD pathway activated by fMLP, i.e. PLD activity, translocation to membranes of PKCalpha, Rho and Arf-GTPases, calcium influx, tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins and finally translocation of p110gamma catalytic subunit of PI3-K to membranes. However, neither PLD nor PI3-Kgamma was substrate of PKA. These data provide evidence that PGE2-stimulated PKA activity regulates the PLD pathway stimulated by fMLP at the level of PI3-Kgamma and that the inhibition of PI3-Kgamma activation by PKA is a complex mechanism that remains to be completely elucidated.

Four types of adenosine receptors have been identified in different tissues and cell types, namely, A1, A2A, A2B, and A3 receptors. We report that A2AR but not A2BR mRNA in freshly isolated polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) is maximally up-regulated after 4 h stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and to a lesser extent, with interleukin (IL)-1beta. These effects were maintained up to 21 h. Consistent with changes in A2AR mRNA expression, up-regulation of A2AR protein was also detected after 4 h of LPS or TNF-alpha exposure. Up-regulation of A2AR protein expression was transient and returned to near basal levels after 12 h or 16 h stimulation with TNF-alpha or LPS, respectively. Conversely, IL-1beta failed to promote A2AR protein expression. Suppression of thapsigargin-induced leukotriene synthesis by the selective A2AR agonist CGS-21680 was found to be more pronounced when PMN were cultured for 4 h with LPS or TNF-alpha. In contrast, the up-regulation of A2AR has no impact on CGS-21680-induced inhibition of phospholipase D activation and superoxide production in response to formyl-Met-Leu-Phe. These results demonstrate that the A2AR is up-regulated by specific T helper cell type 1 cytokines and LPS. Although this could represent a potential feedback mechanism to control inflammation, the effect of A2AR up-regulation varied depending on the stimulus used to stimulate PMN functional responses after their incubation with proinflammatory mediators.

Cytohesin-1 and ARNO are guanine nucleotide-exchange factors (GEFs) for ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf). Here, we show that ARNO is expressed in HL-60 cells and established that granulocytic differentiation induced with Me2SO stimulated cytohesin-1 but not ARNO expression. Cytohesin-1 levels in HL-60 granulocytes were similar to those in human neutrophils. Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells expressed ARNO and cytohesin-1 isoforms with a diglycine and a triglycine motif in their PH domains, respectively. In vitro, ARNO diglycine and cytohesin-1 triglycine enhanced phospholipase D1 (PLD1) activation by Arf1 with near-maximal effects at 250 nM. These effects were marked particularly at low Mg2+ concentrations. PLD activation was well-correlated with GTP binding to Arf1, and cytohesin-1 was always more potent than ARNO in the PLD- and GTP-binding assays. Increasing Mg2+ concentrations reduced PLD and Arf1 activation by Arf-GEFs. fMetLeuPhe and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate stimulated ARNO and cytohesin-1 as well as Arf1 translocation to HL-60 cell membranes. fMetLeuPhe-mediated ARNO recruitment, but not cytohesin-1 and Arf1 translocation, was blocked by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors. The combined results demonstrate that cytohesin-1 triglycine participates in a major phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-independent pathway linking cell-surface receptors to Arf1 activation and translocation in human granulocytes.

The aim of this study was to assess in human neutrophils the implication of an adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent pathway in the inhibitory effects of A2a receptor engagement. We found that Ro20-1724, a cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor, in the presence of adenosine deaminase (ADA) or A2a receptor antagonists rendered transient the fMLP-induced sustained increases in cAMP levels. The role of A2a receptor stimulation was demonstrated by the ability of the A2a receptor agonist, CGS21680, to prevent ADA-mediated reduction of the persistent cAMP elevation induced by fMLP. Persistent cAMP elevation correlated with inhibition of fMLP-induced PLD activation and recruitment of Arf, RhoA, and PKC to membranes. The suppressive effect of CGS21680 or isoproterenol, a beta-adrenergic receptor agonist, was increased by Ro20-1724 or by the adenylyl cyclase activator, forskolin, and reversed, at least in part, by the inhibitor of adenylyl cyclase, 2',5'-dideoxyadenosine. The activator of protein kinase A (PKA), Sp-cAMP inhibited fMLP-induced PLD activation and translocation of Arf and RhoA to membranes. In contrast, the suppression by A2a receptor stimulation of fMLP-induced PLD activation and cofactor recruitment was antagonized by PKA inhibitors, Rp-cAMP and H89. In conclusion, A2a receptor occupancy by extracellular adenosine inhibits fMLP-induced neutrophil activation via cAMP and PKA-regulated events.
